Dr. Bakal, is the Program Director for Provincial Research Data Services at Alberta Health Services, which operates the Alberta Strategy for Patient Oriented Research (SPOR) data platform. He also leads the Health Service Statistical and Analytics Methods teams. Over 10 years, he has worked with health services data, including randomized clinical trials. He completed his PhD jointly through the Department of Mathematics and Statistics and the School of Physical Health and Education at Queen’s University. His work includes methodological contributions and analyses supporting international studies spanning business strategy, ophthalmology, cardiology, and geriatric medicine, as well as analyses of kinematic data, through peer-reviewed publications and conference presentations. Current interests include developing statistical methodology for time-to-event data and building classification tools to support patient decision-making processes. Dr. Abboud is a Board Certified Orthopaedic Surgeon and specializes in the treatment of patients with shoulder and elbow disorders. He is an internationally recognized authority on the treatment of shoulder and elbow disorders. He is a Professor of Orthopaedic Surgery at the Sidney Kimmel Medical College of Thomas Jefferson University and a core member of the teaching faculty for Rothman Orthopaedics. Dr. Abboud received his medical degree with honors from Georgetown University School of Medicine and went on to complete his residency in Orthopaedic surgery at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania where he served as the administrative chief resident and received the award. He subsequently completed two (one-year) fellowships at the University of Pennsylvania in Shoulder and Elbow surgery and Orthopaedic Biomechanics. Dr. Abboud has published over 250 peer reviewed publications, given over 600 invited lectures nationally and internationally, and published several textbooks and numerous book chapters. He has received the prestigious Neer award and Burkhardt award for excellence in research. Dr. Abboud performs a wide variety of simple and complex surgical procedures on the shoulder and elbow including arthroscopic surgery (e.g. rotator cuff repairs, instability surgery) comprehensive fracture care, as well as shoulder and elbow replacement (arthroplasty) procedures. Dr. Abboud is most proud of the fact that he has been caring for patients throughout the Philadelphia region and the Northeast region of the United States. Patients seek out his care from all regions of the United States and overseas. His goal is to always provide each patient with exceptional personalized care.Prof. J.J. Trey Crisco research interests are in musculoskeletal biomechanics where he focuses on upper extremity mechanics and osteoarthritis using advanced imaging analysis and on neuromuscular therapy. He also has an extensive interest in sports injury prevention and performance. His work has been primarily funded by the NIH and has resulted in over 200 peer-reviewed publications. He serves on several NIH study sections, editorial boards, and the scientific advisory committees of International Federation of Women's Lacrosse, US Lacrosse and USA Baseball. Prof. Crisco is a former Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Applied Biomechanics and President of the American Society of Biomechanics. He has previously taught Basic Biomechanics and Product Design and Development, a joint effort between Industrial Design Department at RISD and Engineering at Brown University. He provides guest lectures and supports undergraduates for their independent studies and honors work, master's and doctoral students in his lab. Dr Adam E. M. Eltorai, MD, PhD completed his graduate studies in Biomedical Engineering and Biotechnology along with his medical degree from Brown University. His work has spanned the translational spectrum with a focus on medical technology innovation and development. Dr. Eltorai has published numerous articles and books.
